Use the no define interface-range macro_name global configuration command to delete a macro.
When using the define interface-range global configuration command, note these guidelines:

This example shows how to define an interface-range named enet_list to include ports 1 and 2 and to
verify the macro configuration:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# define interface-range enet_list gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show running-config | include define
Switch# define interface-range enet_list gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2

Valid entries for interface-range, depending on port types on the switch:
vlan vlan-ID, where the VLAN ID is 1 to 4094
–
Note
Although the command-line interface shows options to set multiple VLANs, these
options are not supported on Catalyst 2960 switches.
fastethernet stack member/module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
–
gigabitethernet stack member/module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
–
fastethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
–
–
gigabitethernet module/{first port} - {last port}, where the module is always 0
–
port-channel port-channel-number - port-channel-number, where the port-channel-number
is 1 to 6
Note
When you use the interface range command with port channels, the first and last
port-channel number must be active port channels.
You must add a space between the first interface number and the hyphen when entering an
interface-rang.
For example, gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 4 is a valid range; gigabitethernet1/0/1-4 is not.
The VLAN interfaces must have been configured with the interface vlan command. The show
running-config privileged EXEC command displays the configured VLAN interfaces. VLAN
interfaces not displayed by the show running-config command cannot be used as interface-ranges.
All interfaces defined as in a range must be the same type (all Fast Ethernet ports, all Gigabit
Ethernet ports, all EtherChannel ports, or all VLANs), but you can combine multiple interface types
in a macro.
Purpose
Select the interface range to be configured using the values saved in
the interface-range macro called macro_name.
You can now use the normal configuration commands to apply the
configuration to all interfaces in the defined macro.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Show the defined interface range macro configuration.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
